Looking Back: A Blast At Films From The Past

As we approach the end of the year, the common thing to do is to look back at natural disasters, political events, and entertainment events that have shaped the futures of people across the globe. Without a doubt, Top 10 Lists and The-Year-In-Review articles and television shows will be popping up in about a week. Until then, I want you to turn you attendtion to How It Should Have Ended , a site in which a crew of talented people have animated their concerns and ideas on how movies should have ended.

Go here to know more about the people who worked so hard to share their humor.

Serendipitous Tourist

The Internet is a serendipitous collage of information and diversions. In plain English, you get sucked in, you're down a rabbit hole, and hours later you wonder where your productivity went.

I've made Mark Evanier's web site, News From ME the start-up page on one of my browsers. Today, Mark has posted a link to a tour of Restaurant Relics in Los Angeles, hosted by writer, Marc Scott Zicree (The Twilight Zone Companion) and I found that short film at Turn Here interesting so I decided to see what they had available for Arizona

They had this for Papago Park,



this for Downtown Phoenix,



this for Mill avenue in Tempe,



and this one for Scottsdale.



Elements of these short films do come off as commercials (especially the Scottsdale film), but it's interesting to look at ourselves as others see us.
